Where Is Heaven?

This singular question was put to
Sam Jones, the evangelist, by one of
the wealthiest church members in
Georgia, whose cotton crop yielded
him $4,000 last year. "Where is
heaven I" asked the rich planter. "pll
tell you where heaven is" said Mr..
Jones, "if you will 60 down to the
village and buy fifty dollars worth of
groceries, put them in a wagon and
take them to a poor widow on the
hillside, who has three children sick.
She is poor and member of the
church. Take with you a nurse and
some one to cook their meals. When
You get there read the 23d Psalm, and
kneel by her side and pray; then you
will find out where heaven is" Next
day the evangelist was walking through
the village he met this same wealthy
planter, his face beaming with joy.
He spoke after this manner: "Mr.
Jones, have found out where heaven
is. l went and did as you directed me.
We took up the wagon load of gro
ceries, and the poor widow was COM
pletely overcome with joy; she could
not express her thankfulness. AS L
read to her the Odd Psalm my heart
was filled with thankfulness to God,
aud when | prayed, the angels came
down and 1 thought that L was nearer
to heaven than | had ever been III my
life. left the nurse and cook III her
dwelling and promised her
that she would never suffer SO long as
| could help her."

The Anti-SaIOOn Fight.
Mem York Observer.


The movement against the saloon
gathers strength as it proceeds. Every
where throughout the UniOn-NOrth,
East, West and SOuth-the people are
rising in rebellion against the rule of
rum. Restrictive legislation in vari-
Gus forms, and constitutional prohibi-
ton are the principal lines along which
the warfare proceeds. During the
present season, the legislatures of no
less than twenty-One states have been
called upon to consider the drink evil
and take action toward its suppression.
In nearly every one of these states,
something has been done to check the
growth of the saloon and curtail its
power. High-license laws, local OPP
ton and prOhibitOry amendments are
the order of the day. Never before in
the history of the temperance cause
has the feeling against the liquor traf-
tic been so deep, so widespread, so
earnest, so determined as now. That
most powerful of agencies, the public
press, has at last arrayed itself against
the traffic many of the leading secular
Journals of the country have adopted
a tone of bitter hostility to the grOg-
shop, and are attacking it daily with
all the force and ability they have at
command. No stronger or more eff
fective arguments against the saloon
can be found anywhere than those put
forward in the editorial columns of
some of the New York dailies. The
gain for temperance in this direction
has been of the most significant and
promising character. Public men, too,
men of affairs Judges, statesmen, DO
litical leaders, who have hitherto held
themselves alOof from the discussion
of temperance, are now taking sides in
the conflict, and many of the ablest
and best of them have openly declared
against "the business of manufacture
ing drunkards."
The lines are being more and more
sharply drawn every day between the
adherents of the rum shop and the
friends of peace, order and sObriety.
The hour is at hand when every man
must make il decision in this matter.
And when it comes To this issue every
where we can not doubt where the
majority will stand. The sentiment OF
the country is overwhelming against il
continuance of saloon domination.
There can be no installing this fact.
The present movement is not depend
ent upon wave of popular excite
ment it is not born of Il passing en-
thusiasm. 1t is the outcome of years
of wrong and suffering induced by the
cursed drink traffic it is revolt of
the people against power whose
reign of outrage, vice and crime has
become too terrible to be longer en-
dured

Italian Missionary Work.

Every one who is acquainted with
the marvellous career Italy has run
both in Roman and Medieval times,
will feel an excited interest in her
present condition and prospects for the
future. The Italian nation is Il new in
stitutiOn, being constituted, the first
time in history, by the late revolution.
Catholicism has been the state religion
for centuries, and is SO now, although
since the suppression of the temporal
power of the pope, all creeds are toll
Grated.
Italian missionary work is one of the
important considerations for the Prot
estant churches of America at the
present day for the following reasons :
First, because of the memorable his
tory of that land, the land of the Ce-
sars, of Cicero and Virgil, OF Lorenzo
de Medici and Michael Angelo, should
be won for Christ. Second, because of
the new national movement, united
Italy should be united in the kingdom
of Jesus. Third, because of the re-
ligious state of the people. A compe-
tent authority says: "The country
seems to be drifting further away from
God and truth, while infidelity is
spreading among the lower classes"
Fourth, because of the opportunity so
wonderfully offered by the dethrOne-
ment of Romanism as political power.
Fifth, because of the success which has
crowned the missions already estab-
lished there. The city of Rome has
twenty-five Protestant churches. All
the principal Italian cities have Prot
estant churches established in their
midst. The NJ. C. Mission in Italy,
after only nine years work, was or
ganized into AN annual conference, and

An immigration Agency for Vermont.
BrattIebOrO Pheniz.


The Phoenix has never encouraged
the desertiOn of Vermont for other and
generally less desirable places in the
distant states and territories. If all
the papers of Vermont were to dis
courage emigration, and tell the truth
about the desirability of home in our
own state as compared with the homes
to which most of our emigrants go, it
would save thousands from hOmesick-
ness and regrets and add hundreds of
thousands to our wealth. But the
merits of our own state are overlooked
or deprecated, while columns are Civ
en- to interested correspondents where
in to puff localities in the western
states and territories. Our people are
constantly exposed to the influence of
interested parties, who wOuld beguile
them away from their homes. We
find in the Patrons" column of the
Rural VermOnter a cOmmendatOry no
tice of scheme started by the grang-
ers of the enterprising state of CalifOr
MIA TO promote the emigration of gran
gers from the eastern states and Cana
da. The notice reads as follows:
california Patrons have taken
steps to organize a grange immigration
the grange who may desire to go to
California for the purpose of making
the state their home, may obtain re-
liable information in regard to the
country without the fear of having
frauds perpetrated upon them by par
ties who are interested in private spec
nlatiOn. The object is laudable and
will doubtless be appreciated by many
coast. The California Patron says :
'The desire of the grange is to furnish
just such immigration as proceeds from
the grange in the eastern and western
states and Canada. 1t is this better
population the state Graves, and moth
ing will be left undOne by the officers
of the state grange to make this the |
medium of abrOlutely reliable knOwl-
edge of the peculiar desirability of each |
county of the state."'
1t is this better population that the |
state of California ''craves," that the
state of Vermont cannot afford to |
spare. Instead of losing any part of
this population which we now have,
we want others of the same kind to
make homes in this state. Why do |
not the Patrons of Vermont organize a
grange immigration agency so that
western members of the grange, and
particularly California members, who
may desire to come to Vermont for the
purpose of making this state their
home, may obtain 'reliable Informal
ton" of the ''peculiar desirability of
each county" i'll the state wherein SO
many privileges can be enjoyed which
are unattainable in Il large portion of
the western half of the cOuntry9

A Murdered Mans Papers.

June there were found among the
Ohio county, West Virginia, poor rec
Ords number of private papers be-
longing to Lowell Gore. The name
recalled an old tragedy. In 1888 an
old peddler, with one -hOrse wagon,
passed through Elm Grove, five miles
east of Wheeling. The next morning
he was found insensible in his wagon
near, having been beaten, robbed and
left for dead. He revived, told his
name and died.
He was buried by the poor authori-
ties. These papers had evidently been
put away without examination. Among
them was promissOry note payable
to Gore for 81 $50; a deed for 100
acres of land in Vermont; three war;
rants for land in Wisconsin and sew
eral valuable mortgages. A commit
tee was appointed by the Board of
Commissioners to try and find his
heirs.
